Beautiful Blizzard

CAS on Friday #142 has a very elegant color challenge this round - copper, black and white - so pretty!
I still have Christmas on the brain, so I knew I needed to pull out another new set - today it's Beautiful Blizzard!  Besides some lovely snowflakes and swirls, with chilly sentiments, there's also the Blizzard Thinlit - which cuts out a whole sheet of snowflakes at once!  Gotta love that!  I tried it today with my copper foil, and selected a few to show off.  As usual with a copper challenge, I ended up pulling out everything I have in copper, lol - foil sheet, thread, embossing powder - oops.  Still noting like a warm copper blizzard, right?

Oh yes, As You See It #185 has my fave green blue color combo for their challenge this week!  Awesome!  I do miss Dapper Denim!
With this gorgeous combo, I knew I wanted to qua-paint today - I've been neglecting them terribly lately for my Blends, lol.  But I also wanted to do Christmas - could it be done? Oh, you KNOW it!  Enter Beautiful Baubles, with a bang!  Besides the super cute line-art in this set, made just for coloring freaks like me, it also has an amazing and expansive thinlits set, which will have to debut some other time, lol.  Today we're letting the coloring do the talking!

Frosted Christmas

Check out our gorgeous banner sketch at Fab Friday #147!  Love it!
I knew I wanted to show off some gorgeous DSP for this sketch, and right now Frosted Floral is my pearly fave!  Beautiful pearlized sheets with delicate brush-stroke botanicals really does it for me, lol.  The stamp set is equally lovely, and I LOVE the framelits - a wonderfully planned suite!  I know these are unusual colors for the holidays, but they do kinda remind me of lavish table settings and celebrations, lol.  Is that weird?
I can't wait to see what YOU come up with!  See you at the challenge!

Brusho Wow!

I think Back to Basics #12's "inky backgrounds" will be a blast!  I LOVE to get messy!
Today's challenge was just what I needed to pull out my Brusho Crystal Colors, and "brush" them off for a little fun, lol.  I decided to work with a my heavier watercolor papers for this one, because I knew I wanted to really play with the "blooming" effect of the Brusho crystals.  This turned out to be a good call, as was the "messy board" I put down first.  Put a spritzer in my hand, and it just goes everywhere!  Anyway, I started with a heavy water spritz, and then tapped on blue and orange crystals, letting them bloom how they wanted, though I did add a few more water spritzes after the crystals on the corners.  I blotted any big drips with a tissue, then finished with my heat tool - too impatient to wait!  I decided some big Mango letters were the perfect finish, and I added a congrats on the inside - so fun!

So fun - Inspire Create Challenge #27 is celebrating their one-year anniversary this week - woo hoo!  So of course, they have a challenge theme this round - celebrate!
In my house, we celebrate with PURPLE, lol, Blackberry Bliss to be exact!  We may or may not do a little dance, too!  I found the perfect sentiment in Another Wonderful Year, and added my blackberry dancer from Beautiful You - my fave image from this set!  Also, I think I'm now officially a die-hard Blends coloring freak - I can't seem to stop, lol.  I decided to add some color to my sentiment by adding the cut out banner, since I was fussy-cutting the dancer anyway...  Good times today!  Congrats, ICC - keep up the great work!

We have a lovely bold sketch for you this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #380!
I've been wanting to pull out my Dandelion Wishes set for a couple weeks now, and this sketch finally ticked the right boxes, lol.  One look at that nice big circle, and I knew this was my chance!  I love all the images in this set, but the one I gravitate towards seems to be the "blowing" dandelion - brings back so many memories of wishing, lol!  I added some pretty organic backgrounds with my Tranquil Textures DSP, too - a perfect fit.
I hope you'll join us - I can't wait to see your creations at the challenge!

Imagine...

AAA #124 has an inspiring theme for us this week - "imagine!"
So, I think it shows - this one was a TOUGH one for me!  After an extensive search, I had to admit that I don't think I have a stamp set that has the word "imagine" in it - and I really wanted to use it!  So, I built my sentiment today with the gorgeous Brushwork Alphabet - it was quite the job, let me tell you, lol.  I wanted this to be about creative imagination, so I next pulled out my Crafting Forever set for the little pot of brushes, and finished with a few paint spatters from Timeless Textures.  Whew.  The brushes are little closer to the sentiment than I wanted, because right when I was putting in place, the stamp FELL OFF THE BLOCK to the location you see before you - no WAY I was re-doing all those letters, lol!  So I made it work - I might actually kind of like it, even, lol...

Sure hope you like our lovely layered sketch this week at Sunday Stamps #188 - we sure do!  I'm also adding in CAS-ual Friday #208's sequin challenge, because, well, SEQUINS, lol...
I decided today would be another good day to show some love to something that maybe hasn't been inked in a bit (especially since I have some NEW sets on the way - eek!  I'm so excited!) and Best Birds fit the bill!  I love the branch in this one, it serves as a great horizontal element for when I want to go all rogue on a sketch, too, lol.  I feel quite proud of my birdie today - I played around with dotting some subtle color on his tummy that looks like it really paid off - I think this is one of my better and more realistic renditions!
So, feeling inspired?  I cant wait to see what YOU come up with for our sketch - see you at the challenge!

So excited to be able to play again at What Will You Stamp #186 this week - it's been a while!  And I LOVE the Waterfront stamp set - yay!
It's been some time since I played with this fun set - I decided on a simple tropical scene  I don't use the palm trees that much - I think this is only the second time, lol, but they sure take me straight back to Maui - complete with a Coastal Cabana cabana, lol.  Simple and bright today - all it needs is the breeze, too!

Love the citrus combo at this week's Fusion Card Challenge!
So, I OF COURSE went straight to Lemon Zest for this card - how not?  I have also carefully hoarded my scraps of this citrus sheet from the now-retired Tutti-Frutti DSP, and was able to squeeze out a pretty stripe for the card front, as well as the envelope flap!  I still love this set so much, and the zesty colors that go with it - yum!
